34 TOTAL WORLD & RES. WORLD CHAMPIONS IN 2012All Associations Combined

It is with great sadness that I must report that our legend has passed.
At 10:00 on Dec 5th 2012, Kids Classic Style was euthanized.

He had torn his back ligament early summer and ISU has been working on rehabilitation since then. Despite the efforts he continued to decline and although it was an extremely difficult decision it was decided that we must end his pain. There were lots of tears shed both by us and by his family at Iowa State. He has left his mark on the industry as one of the greats! Most that saw him in real life were in aw of his physical traits yet those that knew him will remember him by his big heart and personality. He has passed that kind, gentle nature onto his offspring and will now live through them. We are taking him home to be buried on the hill next to the mare barn so that he will always be near us as we consider ourselves blessed to have had the opportunity to be in this stallions life. Our hearts are broke.

There will never be another. RIP Bucky
